I'm sorry I've been away from the blog for a minute but I'm back now so pay attention. Before I get started, I just wanted to ask, "don't you find that February is a hard month to grind in?" I mean straight up, I found it very difficult getting anything accomplished with regards to beat-making. Although I did get a lot done on other fronts, I just found that I lacked motivation to make any music whatsoever. I'm not saying I didn't make ANYTHING but I just found it really hard getting inspired and driven to create. However, I found myself cured last week. See I just recently spent the last week in New York City for the first time and let me tell you something...It is my favourite place on Earth. I was staying in Midtown Manhattan, the Waldorf Astoria and the W to be precise and there is so much history that I was immediately overwhelmed with the sensation to bang out some music. There are just so many cool spots and fascinating stories that you can't help but feel creative. For example, something as small as going to John Lennon's old apartment in the Upper West-Side inspired me for I knew that I was standing in the same spot as a musical legend.

Furthermore, I found doing anything in New York whether it was finding a small restaurant with famous guests pictures on the wall or simply walking the streets inspired me to do better and work harder.
So essentially that's what it is... I left for New York as a getaway, hoping for inspiration and ended up having the best week of my life. I added a new page at the top of the blog for my appearances and tour spots so I'll try my best in keeping that updated. I figure I'm going to start with only putting a few future spots in there for now and see if I can keep up from there. It's more to give everyone an idea on what's going on inside my head in regards to upcoming important dates that will be significantly affecting my music career. Anyway, I should get back to some of this music but I just wanted to let y'all know what was good with me.
P.S. If you haven't been to the Big Apple...Go!...NOW!
